It was good! Love the roasted garlic in there. Not sure about the celery seed though-I may reduce or eliminate it next time.
Still a warm, comforting and hearty soup.
Happy to hear you still enjoyed in Carrie!
Celery seeds do indeed have a very specific bitter taste, so simply leave those out if you don’t enjoy them.
I omitted the celery seeds and noted that you need three cups of broth, not two. I used Field Roast apple sausage and cut it into slices. Definitely want to make this soup again! Thank you!
